In a wonderful coincidence, we have a woman pianist who champions composer Florence Price and has programmed Price and her student Margaret Bonds plus the iconic composer Clara Schumann on March 13 during Women's History Month. To continue the connections, Clara and Robert Schumann were mentors and friends of Brahms, whose music is also on the program. And Chopin (Ballad 3 is on program) was a contemporary of the Schumanns.
Here are a few more interesting facts to know. Thank you to our Rowan Music Industry intern Xavion Collier for researching Ms. Cann for this email.
